Comments:Don't see Hogan and Warrior loosing. I say they win by Dq

Thoughts On Diary: Great as always, really can't wait to see Nikita Koloff. I think he could be A monster heel , and a future worlds champ. I think NWA/JCP dropped the ball when they could have had him beat Flair or Rhodes for the Worlds title. Maybe they thought he wasn't ready, but just thinking all the possibilities of what could have been

sportsfanmas · January 16, 2019

The Nasty Boys vs. The Bushwhackers

Comments: I like both teams, but gotta go with the Nastys here

Mike Sharpe vs. Saba Simba

Comments: I really feel like Tony Atlas got some really dumb gimmicks in WWE, but even so, he should go over Sharpe easily here.

Sgt. Slaughter vs. Jim Duggan

Comments: Should be a really good match, although stamina for both could be an issue.

Haku and The Barbarian vs. Jim Powers and Shane Douglas

Comments: Powers and Douglas are still both pretty young I believe, but it's hard to go against members of the Weasel... I mean.. Heenan family.

Brooklyn Brawler vs. Greg Valentine

Comments: As good of a jobber as the Brooklyn Brawler was, it would have been nice to see him get a few upset wins.

The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker vs. Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior

Comments: Star power galore in this one! I feel like, again, you're going to have a hard time not letting Hogan and Warrior go over, but if I were picking I'd go with DiBiase and Taker.

Thoughts On Diary: Loving it. Can't say much else. Shameless plug, please check out my SMW diary if you haven't already. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Thoughts On Formatting Question: My diaries have always been short and sweet, so that's what I prefer. Too many diaries to read through, so little time. I admit I'm a skimmer.

Mike Sharpe vs. Saba Simba
Comments: Don't know these wrestlers too well, but since I'm pretty sure Simba is Tony Atlas, I'll go with him.

Hey lionsden03! Thanks for the predictions and comments. Tony Atlas is, indeed, Saba Simba. One of his, well, lesser gimmicks to say the least.

Thoughts On Diary: Liking this so far. Keep the post coming and I'll be following.

Hey RyanR93WKU! Thanks for the predictions and comments! Glad to hear that you're enjoying this so far and that you'll be continuing to follow. I'll do my best to keep up the standard.

Hey horseman4lyfe! Thanks for the predictions and comments! I can say that Tony Atlas most likely took the Saba Simba gimmick because he was homeless at the time and just finished a drug addiction.

I definitely agree with you about Nikita Koloff. He could have been an absolute beast but was misused in the NWA. Now that he's here with us in the WWF, we'll have to make sure we don't misuse him in the same manner, right? Maybe he could be a future WWF Heavyweight Champion.

Thoughts On Diary: Loving it. Can't say much else. Shameless plug, please check out my SMW diary if you haven't already.

Hey sportsfanmas! Thanks for the predictings and the comments. Glad that you're enjoying things so far. I am really looking forward to seeing reactions to the Royal Rumble.

I gotta rise from the shadows and let ya know that I'm still here just been dealing with work and sooo many changes in my life. KUTGW cuz I'll always read your dairies!

Hey critical-23! I can understand being busy with real life stuff. Real life always comes first. But it's great to see you still around and I hope that your life calms down a little bit. I am always glad to have you as a reader.

Thoughts On Formatting Question: In my opinion, the most essential part to a successful diary is longevity. If you think lightening the load a bit will help with that, then I'm all for it.

Thoughts On Formatting Question: Short and concise works for me.

Thoughts On Formatting Question: Short and concise except in special circumstances (eg Mankind winning the title on Raw, or some kind of legendary angle. Otherwise I feel matches outside of PPVs can be short and the big write ups saved for big events)

Thoughts On Formatting Question: I think you should go with option that suite yourself the best and personally I´m fine with shorter write-ups.

In that case, your workload being reduced is going to lead to the most product and passion in this diary. This will lead to happy readers either way. The pictures are great, but in reality most people surely skim for results.

Thoughts On Formatting Question: I think write ups don't have to be long and drawed out to get the results and point across. Either way I'll continue following.

Thoughts On Formatting Question: My diaries have always been short and sweet, so that's what I prefer. Too many diaries to read through, so little time. I admit I'm a skimmer.

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts. I really do appreciate each and every one of them. I believe that I am going to try the shortened write-ups and see how things go.

He berates the unintelligent masses in the crowd and then introduces his special guests: Slick, The Warlord and Power and Glory. They hype The Warlord in the Royal Rumble and call Power and Glory future WWF World Tag Team Champions. Then they are interrupted by The Rockers, who join them all in the ring. The Rockers want that match against Power and Glory next week on Prime Time Wrestling that they missed out on a few weeks back. Slick agrees but The Rockers are attacked 3-on-2 until The British Bulldog makes the save...C+ -At the announce booth, Vince McMahon, Gorilla Monsoon and Roddy Piper welcome everyone to Prime Time Wrestling. Vince McMahon discusses tonight's main event match where The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker take on Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior. Monsoon sends us to the ring for our opening contest...B+ -In a bout that had decent wrestling but didn't have much heat, The Nasty Boys(C-) defeated The Bushwhackers(Butch-C-, Luke-D+) in 5:38 when Jerry Sags defeated Bushwhacker Luke by pinfall with a Trip to Nastyville...C -In a video, Sean Mooney hosts the Royal Rumble Event Center. He discusses wrestlers that will be in the Royal Rumble match itself such as Tugboat, Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage and more. Then he announces a new wrestler to add to that list, making his WWF debut at the Royal Rumble. He sends us to a promo with Wahoo McDaniel. McDaniel hypes his WWF debut and says that the great spirit has brought him to this point and shall bring him forth to WrestleMania and the WWF Heavyweight title...C- -In a bout that had decent wrestling but didn't have much heat, Saba Simba© defeated Mike Sharpe(D+) in 6:16 by pinfall with a Samoan Drop...C -A music video is shown to promote the coming debut of The Russians, Ivan and Nikita Koloff. They will arrive at the Royal Rumble where they promise there will be sickles all around...C+ -In a bout that had great heat and good wrestling, Sgt. Slaughter(B) defeated Jim Duggan(C+) in 11:34 by submission with a Cobra Clutch after blatantly cheating...B -Sgt. Slaughter refuses to release the Cobra Clutch which he has on Jim Duggan. Seeing the assault, The Ultimate Warrior comes running in and begins brawling with Sgt. Slaughter, saving Duggan. Randy Savage joins the brawl, attacking Warrior with a double axehandle off the top turnbuckle. When Warrior is laid out, Slaughter turns on Savage, locking on the Cobra Clutch and laying out both Savage and Warrior. He places them both on the mat side by side before giving them a salute of dismissal...B+ -A music video is shown to promote the coming debut of The Nature Boy. This wrestler will make his WWF debut at the Royal Rumble. He is not seen during the video. Instead, a black and white robe is shown with 'Nature Boy' written across the back. A brief flash of blonde hair is shown before the video ends...??? -In the ring, Roddy Piper hosts the Piper's Pit. Piper's special guest is Ricky Steamboat, who comes out and joins the Pit. Piper asks Steamboat about his return last week, showing a video of exactly what happened. Steamboat says that he saw an injustice happening last week so he had to come out and do something about it. He says that when you see something wrong you have to make a stand. The Pit is interrupted by the arrival of Bobby Heenan and Mr. Perfect. Perfect tells Steamboat that he stuck his nose in where it doesn't belong and that, if he's not careful, it will be cut off. Steamboat asks if that's a challenge, maybe for the IC title. Perfect backs off from that, stating that Steamboat has not earned a title shot. But he says that if Steamboat can eliminate him in the Royal Rumble then he will earn a title shot. With Steamboat distracted, Haku and The Barbarian suddenly attack him from behind, leaving him down and out and The Heenan Family standing tall on Piper's Pit. Haku and The Barbarian remain in the ring because they have a match and it's next...A -In an extremely short match, Haku(C+) and The Barbarian(B-) defeated Jim Powers(D) and Shane Douglas(D) in 5:27 when The Barbarian defeated Shane Douglas by pinfall with a Cresant Kick...C+ -Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior had an interview with Gene Okerlund hyping their upcoming tag match with DiBiase and Undertaker. Hogan asks them what they're going to do when the power of Hulkamania and the power of the Warriors runs wild over you...A* -In an extremely short match, Greg Valentine(C-) defeated Brooklyn Brawler(D-) in 3:43 by submission with a Figure Four Leglock...D+ -In a video, Rick Martel approaches Jack Tunney in Mr. Tunney's office. Martel tells Mr. Tunney to call off the steel cage stipulation in his match with Jake Roberts but Mr. Tunney refuses this demand. Martel threatens to blind Mr. Tunney the way he did Roberts. He reminds Tunney what he is capable of but this only angers Mr. Tunney. This causes Mr. Tunney to add an extra stipulation to that match. The stipulation is that if Martel loses, he's out of the Royal Rumble match. Martel fumes and stomps off...C+ -In an exceptional match, Hulk Hogan(A*) and The Ultimate Warrior(B) defeated The Million Dollar Man(A) and The Undertaker(C+) in 15:08 when The Undertaker got disqualified after going into a rage and refusing to release a chokehold on Hulk Hogan. The Undertaker was the weak link, struggling to keep up with everyone else's in-ring performance...B -The Million Dollar Man and Dusty Rhodes are in the ring and are squaring off, unhappy about something. The argument soon turns physical, and they are joined by The Undertaker, Sgt. Slaughter, Virgil, Dustin Rhodes, Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior for a wild brawl, with the chaos spilling out all around ringside. Some of the major happenings during this brawl include Virgil accidentally striking The Million Dollar Man, The Undertaker being sent over the top rope with a double clothesline by Hogan and Warrior, Slaughter and Hogan brawling in the ring and, finally, Hogan and Warrior going face-to-face with both men having their hands on the WWF Heavyweight title belt. The show ends on this face-off with Hogan and Warrior, a call back to last year's WrestleMania battle between the two men...A*</div></div><div></div></blockquote></div>

Only one team will gain momentum one day away from the Royal Rumble. Monsoon sends us to the ring for our opening bout...B -In a bout that had sub-par wrestling and little heat, Jim Powers(D) defeated Mike Sharpe(D+) in 5:54 by pinfall with a Running Powerslam...D+ -In a video, Sean Mooney hosts the Royal Rumble Event Center. Mooney talks about the upcoming Royal Rumble match and sends us to a promo with The British Bulldog. Bulldog talks about winning the opportunity to select late in the Royal Rumble. He says that, because of that, he is going to win the Royal Rumble and head to WrestleMania to become the new WWF Heavyweight Champion. He ends by calling out Hail Britannia...C -In a decent match, Big Bossman(B-) defeated Brooklyn Brawler(D-) in 6:11 by pinfall...C+ -A video plays that recaps last Monday's Prime Time Wrestling. The main focus of the video is the main event contest that pitted The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker against Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior. Hogan and Warrior won by disqualification when The Undertaker refused to release a chokehold on Hogan...B+ -Mr. Perfect had a promo hyping his upcoming singles match with Big Bossman and his participation in the Royal Rumble match. He promises to win both on the same night. He says that, like The Ultimate Warrior last year, he will go to WrestleMania and win the WWF Heavyweight title as the Intercontinental Champion. Why? Because he is what he says he is and that's absolutely perfect...B+ -In a decent match, Tanaka(C-) defeated Jim Neidhart© in 12:12 by pinfall with a Rolling Wheel Kick following interference from Kato...C+ -The match is over and Jim Neidhart is left down. Orient Express are celebrating in the ring and then decide to add insult to injury by attacking Neidhart. Bret Hart comes running down to the ring to make the save but he is taken out as well with a rolling wheel kick by Tanaka. Orient Express stand tall in the ring and Mr. Fuji comes in with the WWF World Tag Team title belts. He hands them to Tanaka and Kato and they raise the belts high in the air as the show comes to a close. On a voiceover, Gorilla Monsoon wonders if we could be seeing the next WWF World Tag Team Champions right here in this ring. Bobby Heenan says that we are and the show comes to a close...C</div></div><div></div></blockquote></div>

<div style="text-align:center;">Wrestling Observer Newsletter World Wrestling Federation <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46192" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>-The WWF Royal Rumble event will be coming to you live on Sunday Week 4 January 1991 from Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts! We are on the road to WrestleMania VII and this show will go a long way in determining what happens at WrestleMania. Our main event for this show is the Royal Rumble match and we learned at the beginning of this month that the winner of the Royal Rumble will compete for the WWF Heavyweight title at WrestleMania VII! Aside from some unnamed wrestlers competing, such wrestlers as Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage and The Russians will be participating in this match! All three prior winners will be included in this match, including Hogan, Big John Studd and Jim Duggan. -Speaking of WrestleMania VII, only one man can be the WWF Heavyweight Champion heading into this big show. The question becomes whether this will be the current champion, The Ultimate Warrior or his challenger, Sgt. Slaughter. Last Monday night, these two men battled in the ring and Randy Savage had a hand in Slaughter getting the advantage. The turncoat Sgt. Slaughter definitely doesn't have any fans in America and especially in a building where America's pastime takes place. Slaughter has promised to take the title and bring it back to the Middle East but The Ultimate Warrior has other ideas. Only one man can be right. -In another match, we will see two men leave the World Wrestling Federation. We will see The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker team up to take on the father and son duo of Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes. The four men were part of the show-closing brawl on Prime Time Wrestling. Only two of these four men will be part of the Royal Rumble match at the end of the night. The other two will be gone from the World Wrestling Federation. A big question is how will Virgil play into this match after he accidentally struck The Million Dollar Man on Prime Time Wrestling. -Two more titles will be defended on this night in separate matchups where Mr. Perfect will defend the WWF Intercontinental title against Big Bossman and The Hart Foundation will defend the WWF World Tag Team titles against The Orient Express. Could we see some title changes happen on this evening? -Our opening match is sure to be a great one as it will take place inside of a steel cage. You can win by pinfall, submission or escaping the match as Rick Martel takes on Jake Roberts! This feud goes back to last year when Martel 'accidentally' sprayed Roberts in the eyes with his Arrogance. This blinded The Snake but we know that Roberts has recovered his vision at this point. Roberts will definitely be looking for revenge in this match but The Model has more riding on the outcome. Last Monday, on Prime Time Wrestling, Martel got into an argument with WWF President Jack Tunney. Due to this argument, Tunney added the stipulation that, if Martel loses, he will no longer be part of the Royal Rumble match.</div></blockquote></div> Prediction Listing Steel Cage Match (Win By Pinfall, Submission Or Escaping The Cage) If Rick Martel Loses, He Is Out Of The Royal Rumble Rick Martel vs. Jake Roberts Comments: WWF World Tag Team Titles Match The Hart Foundation defend vs. The Orient Express Comments: WWF Intercontinental Title Match Mr. Perfect defends vs. Big Bossman Comments: Losers Leave The WWF Match The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker vs. Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes Comments: WWF Heavyweight Title Match The Ultimate Warrior defends vs. Sgt.

Comments: I think the Macho Man picks up the victory to go into Mania against Warrior. I think The Russians get rid of Hogan or cheat him to set up a Mania match between Hogan and Nikita.

Thoughts On Mystery Combatants: Could be guys from WCW or former stars. Could just be jobbers. Interested to see who it could be, but the winner won't be one of the mystery competitors.

Thoughts On Diary: Like how the Royal Rumble is to go to WrestleMania. it really all depends on who walks out as Champion.

The Ultimate Warrior defends vs. Sgt. Slaughter

Comments: I could see Slaughter getting a win here in case you would want to get the belt off from Ultimate Warrior but Slaughter´s current gimmick would make it a bit of a hard sell in America so doubt title change would happen here.

Comments: Lots of potential winners here (including potential surprises) but Hogan is Hogan so he feels like the safest pick espesially since he and Warrior already had a tense moment in the latest show.

Thoughts On Mystery Combatants: Could be guys from WCW or former stars. Could just be jobbers. Interested to see who it could be, but the winner won't be one of the mystery competitors.

Thoughts On Diary: Like how the Royal Rumble is to go to WrestleMania. it really all depends on who walks out as Champion.

Hey RyanR93WKU! Thanks for the predictions and the comments. I can say that the mystery combatants will be a mixture of newer talent and legends coming in for, maybe, one last run. I'm glad that you like how I went ahead and changed up the Royal Rumble early. It isn't for several years, in real life, that the winner officially goes to WrestleMania. But I feel that this is just the right step forward.

Thoughts On Diary: Looking forward to The Road to Wrestlemania.

Hey lionsden03! Thanks for the predictions and comments. Glad that you're enjoying things as we begin on the Road toward WrestleMania. Just remember that anything can happen in the WWF.

Hey to4sty! Thanks for the predictions and comments! The Orient Express are a pretty decent team together, both this one and the original team. I do feel I must say that both members of LoD won't be seen for a bit. Hawk's 'injury' by Demolition is because he had to go to rehab.

Hey horseman4lyfe and FellaLibby! Thanks for the predictions and comments! As far as Ric Flair goes? There's only one way to find out if he's The Nature Boy that's been advertised and that's to tune in to the Royal Rumble. But I must say that I am happy and satisfied seeing Arn Anderson as the WCW World Champion.

Hey sportsfanmas! Thanks for the predictions and comments! I can say that the Immortal one does have his creative control and that factored in some to the results of the Royal Rumble. How much did it factor in? Only one way to find out and that's to tune in to the Royal Rumble itself. I can say that, in real life, I was a Hulk Hogan fan during this era and that he still gets a nostalgia pop from me.

Jake Roberts comes out with the snake bag and settles the bag in his corner inside the cage. Rick Martel, on the other hand, comes out with the atomizer of Arrogance. The atomizer is brought in the ring and placed in Martel's corner. When the bell sounds, these two rivals meet in the center of the ring. Martel makes a motion like Roberts smells and then he walks back to the atomizer. He goes to pick it up and Roberts attacks him from behind. Roberts shoves Martel back in the corner and climbs up, throwing punches on Martel! Roberts quickly drops back down and pulls Martel into a short-arm clothesline. He yanks Martel back up and signals for the DDT! He hooks Martel but The Model slips free, dropping to the ground and crab-walking back to a corner. Roberts follows him in and Martel pokes him in the eye! Martel turns Roberts back into the corner and catches him with several shoulders into the gut before pulling him out and bringing him to the mat with a vertical suplex. Martel floats over and scores a two count. The match moves forward with The Model in control of Roberts, focusing on the back of The Snake, including striking him on the back with the Atomizer. Gorilla Monsoon reminds everyone that there is no disqualification in a cage match. Martel locks Roberts in the Quebec Crab for about thirty seconds before releasing and going for the cage.] [...Rick Martel begins climbing the steel cage...] [...Martel nears the middle section as he climbs...] [...Jake Roberts begins to stir, pulling himself to his feet...] [...Martel looks down and sees Roberts getting up, trying to focus on climbing but missing a rung...] [...Roberts climbs the cage and bangs Martel's head off the steel, sending Martel onto his back on the mat...] [....Roberts drops back down in the ring...] [Jake Roberts grabs his back, wincing in pain for a moment as he stalks Rick Martel. The match has crossed over the ten minute mark as Roberts moves in to Martel. Roberts picks up Martel and brings him to the mat with a vertical suplex, leaving both men on the mat. The Model is the first man to stir, pulling himself up and looking toward the corner where Damian has begun to stir inside the bag. The bag is moving slightly, giving wide eyes to Rick Martel! Martel staggers over to the Atomizer and grabs it, moving slowly toward the snake bag as Jake Roberts begins climbing to his feet using the ropes. Martel sprays in the general area of the snake bag, not willing to get too close to it. Roberts moves in and strikes Martel from behind, knocking him to the mat. Roberts grabs the Atomizer and raises it up to cheers from the crowd. Roberts looks down at Martel and sprays him three straight times! He tosses the Atomizer away and grabs Martel, making the signal for the DDT. Roberts moves Martel into the center of the ring and hooks a front face lock: DDT! Martel is planted in the center of the ring! Roberts looks around for a moment, seemingly trying to make a decision. He smiles as he looks toward the snake bag and then covers Martel: One, Two, Three!

He picks up the snake bag and raises it to more cheers from this crowd! Roberts opens up the bag and releases Damian down onto the prone body of Rick Martel! The crowd goes absolutely wild as the large snake slithers around the unconcious body of Martel! Roberts has definitely won the war this evening against The Model! But a surprise comes as someone leaps over the guardrail! What is going on here? Security is thrown to the side as this man enters the cage and takes down Roberts with a Lariat clothesline! This man is identified by Roddy Piper as Stan Hansen! The Lariat hasn't been in this company since it was the WWWF! Hansen assaults Jake Roberts, dropping down and throwing punches! He gets up and walks back over to the steel cage door, closing it tight as officials come running from the back. Hansen turns back to Roberts and stomps on him three times before raising the horns to loud boos from this crowd! He picks up Roberts and slams him against each side of the steel cage! The third strike on the cage busts Roberts open! The Snake is bleeding in the middle of the ring as Hansen hits another Lariat, dropping him to the mat. What is Stan Hansen doing back in the WWF? More importantly, why has he attacked Jake Roberts?!?!

Slaughter he will be left with an empty allegiance. He will be left without a country to go to. He asks Sgt. Slaughter if Iraq will take him when he comes back to them empty-handed, without the WWF Heavyweight title belt. He says that the United States knows where his allegiance lies and that is not with this country that he has served. He says that Slaughter will be left begging that he wants the United States back but the warriors do not forget. The Warriors will always remember what Sgt. Slaughter has said and done in the past. He says that Slaughter will be cast out into the ocean where no countries reign and be forced to live the rest of his days alone.

This was a decent match where Tanaka and Kato took an early advantage due to a distraction from Mr. Fuji. But their momentum was very short-lived as Kato missed a handspring elbow in the corner on Jim Neidhart and Neidhart tagged in the technically sound Bret Hart. Hart began absolutely dominating the match from pillar to post and against both Kato and Tanaka. This definitely shows that The Hart Foundation are on a different level than the Orient Express. Hart isolates Kato in the ring and catches him with a backbreaker. He climbs in a neutral corner to the second turnbuckle. He looks down at Kato and then drops a pointed elbowdrop onto the masked man! He hits a Russian Legsweep and makes a cover but Tanaka breaks up the pinfall. In comes Jim Neidhart to knock Tanaka out of the ring! The crowd cheers for The Hart Foundation as Bret Hart catches Kato with an inverted atomic drop, pushing him toward Neidhart. Neidhart hooks Kato and Hart bounces off the ropes -- Hart Attack!

However, instead of being able to celebrate this victory, that celebration is short-lived as The Russians come out from the back and attack Bret and Jim! Hart and Neidhart try to fight back but the power of the Russians even overtakes The Anvil! Nikita Koloff catches Neidhart with a Russian Sickle, sending him crashing to the mat. The Russian Bear grabs Bret Hart and locks him in a bear hug! Hart is squeezed in the center of the ring as Nikita begins stomping on Neidhart! Nikita grabs his chain and wraps it around the throat of Neidhart, beginning to choke him! Neidhart struggles in the choke but eventually stops moving! Nikita releases the choke and Ivan releases the bear hug, dropping Bret Hart down beside his partner. The Russians grab the WWF World Tag Team title belts and raise them up to boos from the crowd as the Russian National Anthem begins to play. A 'USA' chant begins loud and clear through the crowd as The Russians have control right now.

They dragged him to the ring where Perfect and Bobby Heenan slapped him and insulted his mother. But Bossman was saved by the WWF return of Ricky Steamboat!

Of course, Perfect has Bobby Heenan in his corner, while Bossman has come out here alone. The beginning of the match has Perfect trying a little stick and move tactic on Bossman, trying to keep him away from being able to use that power. However, Perfect steps in one too many times and Bossman grabs him, throwing him across the ring. Perfect stands up in the corner and gets squashed by Bossman with a corner clothesline! Bossman has the crowd behind him as he places Perfect over the second rope. Bossman bounces off the ropes and then slides underneath the bottom rope, turning and jacking the jaw of Perfect with an uppercut! Bobby Heenan steps in, yelling at Bossman! With the Bossman distracted, Mr. Perfect recovers in the ring and hits Bossman with a baseball slide kick! Perfect rams Bossman into the guardrail and then brings the action back inside the ring where he begins focusing on the back of the Bossman. He stomps on the back and somehow manages to hit a backbreaker on the larger Big Bossman! Perfect gets Bossman in the corner and hits a snapmare followed by a rolling neck snap. Perfect calls for the Perfect-Plex but it's blocked by Bossman! The crowd begins cheering and clapping their hands as Bossman twists out of the Perfect-Plex attempt and brings Perfect down with a body slam. Both men slowly get to their feet and Bossman takes control. Bossman calls for the Bossman Slam but Bobby Heenan gets on the apron! Heenan yells at the Bossman and gets the attention of the referee. Bossman walks over toward Heenan but Perfect catches Bossman with a low blow! The crowd boos as Perfect twists Bossman around and brings him over in a picture perfect Perfect-Plex! The referee turns back around: One, Two, Three! Mr. Perfect retains the WWF Intercontinental title!] Winner: Mr. Perfect (Via Pinfall @ 11:12) Match Rating: B</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46192" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><img alt="JWmlEDf.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/JWmlEDf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><div style="text-align:right;"></div> [Following an instant replay of what happened in the previous match, we are taken to a promo featuring the man who will challenge for the WWF Heavyweight title later on tonight, Sgt. Slaughter. Slaughter calls everyone to attention and begins by saying that he heard The Ultimate Puke's words earlier tonight. He says that there is no way he will be asking for the United States back because the United States will cease to exist when the power of the Iraqi army take them over. He says that he is going to prove the might of the Iraqi army tonight when he steps in the ring with The Ultimate Warrior and leaves as the WWF Heavyweight Champion. He says that when he gets his victory he will get on a plane and fly to Baghdad where he will meet with the world's greatest leader Saddam Hussein. He will sit back and have a drink with his best friend and then he will place the WWF Heavyweight title at the feet of this man as a symbol of his dominance over the United States. Then he will go to WrestleMania VII and defend the belt against the winner of the Royal Rumble where he will, once again, prove his dominance. And that's an order!

Will it be The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker? Or will it be Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes? The fans are solidly in the corner of the Rhodes family but Brother Love and Virgil are standing in the corner of The Undertaker and The Million Dollar Man. Virgil does not look happy standing in the corner as he was originally supposed to be a part of this match. Ted DiBiase starts the match with Dustin Rhodes. Dustin shows some of that youthful exuberance against DiBiase, going right after him. He pushes DiBiase back into a corner and the referee asks for a clean break. Dustin is ready to give it to him but DiBiase goes for a slap -- blocked by Dustin! Dustin catches DiBiase with his own version of the Bionic Elbow in the corner, sending DiBiase staggering out of the corner and flopping on the mat. Dustin tags in his father and Dusty comes in, picking up DiBiase and body slamming him on the mat. Dusty gets wild in the ring, attacking DiBiase with a few chops and punches while standing and dropping an elbow on him on the mat. He only scores a two count when it's broken up by The Undertaker. Dusty pulls DiBiase back up and begins punching him with three straight right hands before doing a little dance and another Bionic Elbow. Dusty plays to the crowd as DiBiase yells for Virgil to get on the apron. Virgil refuses but DiBiase manages to get enough momentum to tag in The Undertaker. The Undertaker steps in and catches Dusty with a stiff clothesline before twisting his arm. He climbs the turnbuckles and does his rope walk before hitting Dusty with a forearm shot off the top rope. The Undertaker stares at the younger Rhodes family member before turning back to the elder one. He literally tosses Dusty back into his own corner and Dustin tags himself in. He goes racing toward The Undertaker but the deadman doesn't sell any of the punches. Instead, The Undertaker catches Dustin with a throat chop and then sends Dustin to the ropes. Undertaker, also, bounces off the ropes and catches Dustin with a leaping clothesline! The Undertaker picks up Dustin and grabs him around the throat -- Choke Slam! Dusty comes in to save his son but only takes a Choke Slam from The Undertaker, as well! The Undertaker grabs Dustin and turns him upside down -- Tombstone Piledriver! Dustin Rhodes is planted in the center of the ring. The Undertaker drops down and folds Dustin's hands over his chest: One, Two, Three!] Winners: The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker (Via Pinfall @ 10:21) Match Rating: B</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46192" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><img alt="jqEOCBu.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/jqEOCBu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="hfsAqIJ.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/hfsAqIJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><div style="text-align:right;"></div> [The Million Dollar Man and The Undertaker pick up the victory and send Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes from the World Wrestling Federation!

Virgil shakes his head, refusing the order. The crowd and Roddy Piper (on commentary) get behind Virgil. DiBiase slaps Virgil again and, again, orders him to attack. Virgil shakes his head and DiBiase whispers in Virgil's ear. Virgil's shoulders slump and he looks ready to follow DiBiase's orders -- NO! He clocks The Million Dollar Man with a right hand! A second one! A third one! Virgil grabs DiBiase and body slams him! The crowd pops! Virgil picks up DiBiase and tosses him over the top rope to the floor! Virgil plays to the crowd as they cheer him and his turn on his former boss. DiBiase yells from the floor that Virgil is fired! He yells that Virgil will never find work in professional wrestling ever again! DiBiase begins backing up the entranceway. Virgil claps, getting the crowd behind him before he exits the ring and begins chasing DiBiase! He chases The Million Dollar Man all the way to the back!

This is juxtaposed with video of The Ultimate Warrior winning the WWF Heavyweight title from Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania VI. Warrior started running roughshod over the World Wrestling Federation. At the beginning of 1991 The Ultimate Warrior is shown on Piper's Pit while on Prime Time Wrestling. During this interview, Warrior was attacked by Randy Savage after refusing to grant Savage an automatic WWF Heavyweight title match. Clips of promos that go back and forth between Slaughter and Warrior are shown during the video. Slaughter is shown firing and attacking General Adnan. The two men never get physical until this past Monday on Prime Time Wrestling during a chaotic brawl to end the show. However, that brawl ends with The Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan both having their hands on the WWF Heavyweight title.

Slaughter [A 'USA' chant breaks out immediately as Sgt. Slaughter makes his entrance from the back. Slaughter takes in the loud boos from this crowd in Fenway Park as he walks down the aisle and enters the ring. He calls the referee to attention and salutes the Iraqi flag that he had carried down to the ring by attendants. In contrast, the crowd goes absolutely wild when the WWF Heavyweight Champion The Ultimate Warrior comes running from the back! He slides in under the bottom rope and then goes to the rope, shaking the top rope. This has him turn his back on Sgt. Slaughter and Slaughter moves in, striking Warrior with forearm shots to the back. Warrior shrugs them off and turns back around to look Slaughter in the eyes. The Ultimate Warrior blocks a punch from Slaughter and then fires one back of his own! He punches Slaughter three straight times before bouncing off the ropes and taking down Slaughter with a clothesline! Warrior picks up Slaughter and tosses him over the top rope before standing in the center of the ring beating his chest to hoots and hollars from the crowd. All three members of the commentary team are solidly in the corner of The Ultimate Warrior. Slaughter slides back in the ring and Warrior continues his dominance. He catches Slaughter with a back body drop in the center of the ring. Warrior bounces off the ropes and hits Slaughter with a leaping shoulderblock! He picks up Slaughter and Irish whips him into the corner. The momentum shifts when Warrior goes for a corner clothesline only for Slaughter to move. Warrior crashes over the turnbuckles, striking his head on the ring post! Warrior falls back in the ring and Slaughter picks him up, dropping him with a body slam before driving his knuckles into the top of Warrior's head. Competing 'USA' and 'Warrior' chants rise from the crowd as they try to get The Ultimate Warrior back into the game. Slaughter brings Warrior to the mat with a snap mare before dropping a knee onto Warrior's forehead. Slaughter grabs Warrior and pulls his head between Slaughter's legs -- Piledriver! The piledriver plants Warrior on the mat! The commentary team goes crazy as Slaughter makes the cover:] [....1.... ....2.... ...Kickout!] [The crowd goes wild when The Ultimate Warrior manages to kick out of the Piledriver! Sgt. Slaughter just knew that he had that one! Slaughter stomps on Warrior and continues his control, moving forward to around ten minutes into the match where Slaughter hooks on the Camel Clutch! The Ultimate Warrior refuses to submit as Slaughter leans back on the hold. He's beaten several wrestlers with this hold. Roddy Piper threatens to run to the ring but he's told not to by both Vince McMahon and Gorilla Monsoon. The crowd claps and begins chants of Warrior louder and louder as The Ultimate Warrior begins to get some of that energy. Sgt. Slaughter looks shocked as The Ultimate Warrior begins lifting up to his feet with Slaughter on his back. Warrior drops backward, sandwiching Slaughter on the mat, breaking the hold. Both men lie there on the mat, obviously having a lot taken out of them in this moment. The referee begins the ten count and The Ultimate Warrior manages to grab the bottom rope and begin shaking it. He moves up to the middle rope and then the top rope. Warrior is coming back alive! Sgt. Slaughter, on the other side, manages to pull himself back up. He moves over to Warrior and attacks him from behind but, just like the start of this match, Warrior doesn't sell the forearm smashes. Instead, Warrior turns and begins attacking the Sarge! Warrior begins a criss cross move with Slaughter before taking him out with the leaping shoulderblock! Warrior stands up and beats his chest before grabbing Slaughter and planting him on the mat with a Gorilla Press Slam! Warrior bounces off the ropes -- Running Splash!

Slaughter got his just due despite his foot being on the bottom rope. As The Ultimate Warrior celebrates in the ring, we are taken to a video that shows a list of some of the wrestlers who will be in this year's Royal Rumble. As the list flips through, we are taken to some promos by some of the wrestlers, including Wahoo McDaniel saying that the great Chief in the sky will give him the victory, Jimmy Hart and Earthquake talking about how 29 other men will be crushed under the might of the biggest earthquake ever recovered and Tugboat talking about how he will toss the 29 other men over the top rope. We are, also, shown promos with The Russians as they talk about the attack on The Hart Foundation and how they already made an impact. But their biggest impact will be in the Royal Rumble when they eliminate 28 other wrestlers and become the first dual winners. Ricky Steamboat promises not only to win the Royal Rumble but to win an Intercontinental title match by eliminating Mr. Perfect. In contrast to that, Bobby Heenan and Mr. Perfect say there is no way that Steamboat will eliminate Perfect because he is going to win the Royal Rumble. Perfect says he is one for one tonight and his second victory will have him facing The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania VII and it will be the absolute perfect WrestleMania. The final promo is given by Hulk Hogan. Hogan promises to eliminate anyone who stands in his path and his destiny of getting a rematch with The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania VII. He asks the other wrestlers what they're gonna do when the power of Hulkamania runs wild over you?!?! With that said, it is time for the main event, the Royal Rumble match.]</div></blockquote></div>

AWESOME AWESOME WORK SO FAR!

Steel Cage match didn't go as planned...

Mr. Perfect is simply that.

Bring it on! Can't wait to see what you have in store for the Rumble!

OOC UPDATE: Hey everyone. I just wanted to give an update here. I haven't had much time to really work on the Royal Rumble part of the show yet. I went to the doctor on Saturday and was given more powerful pain medicine to deal with my recurring kidney stones. For anyone who deals with these, Dilaudid(hydropmorphone) works wonders. Though it's not something you should take very often. But I am hoping to get some time to work on it soon. This diary is so very far from being over, though. I can place an actual guarantee on that. So long as the new game doesn't come out tomorrow. LOL.

Hey Kijar! Thanks for the response. I am glad that you enjoyed the work so far. I hope that the appearance of Stan Hansen was a huge surprise for the show. I am hoping to get the Royal Rumble up as soon as possible. I was hoping to get it up before the end of the month but I can't make any promises on that in light of the painkillers.

After he gets settled, the music for Mr. Perfect begins to play and here comes the WWF Intercontinental Champion! What a huge surprise! Roddy Piper reminds the fans that last Monday night Perfect said that if Steamboat eliminates him he will get an Intercontinental title shot! Now these two men have selected numbers one and two in the Royal Rumble! The bell sounds and the two men meet in the center of the ring with Perfect spitting his gum in the face of Steamboat.

Mr. Perfect catches Steamboat with a snap mare out of the corner and then a rolling neck snap. He plays to the crowd, drawing boos. Perfect and Haku look at each other for a moment and the announcers wonder if the two Heenan Family members are going to go at it. After all, it's every man for himself in the Royal Rumble. Perfect motions to the fallen Steamboat, telling Haku to eliminate him. Haku looks down at Steamboat and then back up to Perfect. Haku shoves Mr. Perfect! Perfect shoves Haku back!

Bulldog tosses DiBiase over the top rope but DiBiase lands on the apron! Bulldog bounces off the ropes, charging at DiBiase. Ted DiBiase lowers his head and uses The British Bulldog's momentum to send him over the top rope and crashing to the floor! The British Bulldog has been eliminated! There are only four men left in the ring with the fifth man to come out as the final entrant in the Royal Rumble. Koloff, on the other side of the ring, is choking Hogan on the middle rope. The Russian Nightmare is drawing boos from the crowd as they try, once again, to get behind Hulk Hogan. The buzzer sounds for the final competitor in the Royal Rumble.] ['2001: A Space Odyssey' begins to play and the song draws the attention of all four men in the ring. 'The Nature Boy' shows up on the Titantron and everyone in the ring is, now, watching to see just who The Nature Boy is that is coming out from the back. This name has referred to the inaugural WWWF World Heavyweight Champion Buddy Rogers, famous veteran wrestler from down south Ric Flair, among others. The man steps out from the back with his back to the camera and a black and white robe on him. Written in sequins on the back of the robe is 'The Nature Boy.' The man turns around slowly to reveal himself as...] <img alt="DW9d64x.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/DW9d64x.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> [...Buddy Landel? The disappointment in the arena is almost palpable as Buddy Landel is revealed as number 30 in the Royal Rumble. Landel, however, is no slouch in the ring and he could possible be the next WWF Heavyweight Champion in the future if he can win the Royal Rumble and then win at WrestleMania. Landel struts down to the ring and steps inside. He gives a strut from one side of the ring to the other, releasing a 'Whoooo' to the crowd. He turns and has the attention of Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan, The Million Dollar Man and Nikita Koloff. Landel goes after Hogan and gets knocked backward with a punch. Savage knocks him back with a punch, then The Million Dollar Man and then Nikita Koloff. Landel is getting bounced around like a pinball at this moment! Finally all four men grab him and lift him up. All four men in the ring toss Buddy Landel over the top rope to the floor! Buddy Landel is eliminated! Hulk Hogan moves back to a neutral corner, facing off with the trio of The Million Dollar Man, Randy Savage and Nikita Koloff. It's three bad guys facing off with The Immortal Hulk Hogan! The Million Dollar Man moves in first, attacking Hogan! Hogan blocks a punch and begins throwing three punches of his own to DiBiase. DiBiase staggers backward from the punches and Nikita Koloff takes advantage. Nikita Koloff catches The Million Dollar Man with a Russian Sickle that sends DiBiase over the top rope crashing to the floor! The Million Dollar Man is eliminated! Nikita Koloff turns around right into a clothesline from Hulk Hogan! Hogan sends Koloff over the top rope crashing to the floor! Nikita Koloff has been eliminated! Hogan has eliminated both of the Russians. Then there were two.] [Only two wrestlers remain in this year's Royal Rumble. Those last two are two favorites in Randy Savage and Hulk Hogan. Two of the top wrestlers in the WWF, two men who would make great matches for The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania face off with each other in the center of the ring. The two men begin talking with each other before Savage puts his finger in the face of Hogan. Savage has been in the ring for quite a long time, since number eight. Hogan was number 25. Hogan knocks Savage's finger away from his face and Savage shoves Hogan. Hogan shoves Savage and Savage falls to the mat, looking up at Hogan. The Immortal One cups his ear, drawing cheers from the crowd. Savage crawls backward in the corner, looking up at Hogan. Hogan walks over and suddenly he is struck with a sceptor by Savage! Where did the sceptor come from? The announcers seem to have no idea where the foreign object came from but Savage strikes Hogan with the sceptor again and again and again. He knocks Hogan backward with the object. The Macho King shoves Hogan into a corner and begins choking Hogan with the sceptor! The crowd begins cheering and clapping and chanting for Hogan. Savage pulls Hogan from the corner and brings him over with a vertical suplex. He yanks Hogan up and shoves him toward the ropes. He rushes toward Hogan and catches him with a running high knee to the back, sending Hogan over the top rope! Hogan crashes down to the floor and is the final person eliminated!] Winner: Randy Savage (Via Over The Top Rope Elimination @ 64:59) Match Rating: B</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46192" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><img alt="pUXLrvK.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/pUXLrvK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="bpf8zNd.jpg" data-src="https://imgur.com/bpf8zNd.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><div style="text-align:right;"></div> [The Macho King Randy Savage has won the Royal Rumble! He has won the right to face The Ultimate Warrior for the WWF Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania VII! Savage won the WWF Heavyweight title at WrestleMania IV, lost the WWF Heavyweight title to Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania V, lost in a mixed tag team match last year in WrestleMania VI to Dusty Rhodes and Sapphire and now he will get a shot at the WWF Heavyweight title at WrestleMania VII. The camera catches Sensational Queen Sherri coming out from underneath the ring! Wow! She must have been underneath the ring all night! The announcers talk about that this must be how Randy Savage got the sceptor. Sherri rolls in the ring and begins celebrating with the Macho King. Savage climbs to the top turnbuckle and does a royal wave to the crowd. The announcers talk about what a match we are going to see at WrestleMania VII. It will be 'The Macho King' Randy Savage against The Ultimate Warrior for the WWF Heavyweight title. Savage continues to celebrate in the ring as the show begins to come to a close. The announcers remind everyone to tune in tomorrow night on the USA network for WWF Prime Time Wrestling. They thank everyone for tuning in and wish everyone a good night.]</div></blockquote></div>
